New symptoms

[Soopy]

Thank you so much for your advice Charys, I will let you know as soon as I hear back from them, xx

Soopy, I'd honestly be fibbing if i said I knew the answer to this. From my own experience, just as a forum user over a couple of years, 2 weeks would seem very unlikely to have caused such a change and advancement. If that was likely then they would be scheduling surgeries sooner. It could be something really simple like some inflammation or bruising from the biopsies? Let me know when your bcn rings back, I hope they should be able to see you at very short notice. I had my surgery 3 weeks after diagnosis, and nothing had changed, some women wait much longer.

Hi Charys, got results around 5th April, from mamo, US and biopsies done 20th March, I'm worried in case it has spread since then, is that possible? X

[Charys]

Hi again,

I'm pleased you've done that. It takes courage, when you are feeling awful at this time, but it is definitely the right thing to do. Not sure your date of diagnosis, but if it wasn't so long ago and done via mammo then changes can't happen too quickly.

Hiya Charys, thank you so much for your reply, I have just rung and left a message with my breast care nurse, hopefully it will be ok, I try not to worry but one minute I'm ok the next I fretting, x

Hiyer Soopy,

I think you should mention this now. I am not saying that this is something that is even more worrying, but for your own peace of mind get it done and dusted. Goodness knows that the wait between diagnosis and surgery is already psychologically draining without having another worry on your shoulders. A quick way to get to the thoughts of the oncologist, is to contact your breast cancer nurse. I am hoping that you definitely already have the phone details to use of the breast cancer nursing team ? In the worst case scenario it will revise how they do your treatment plan/surgery, or it could literally be nothing that concerns them. x

Hi there, I'm new to this forum thing so am a little nervous, I was diagnosed with a breast cancer and cancer in a lymph node under arm 2 and a half weeks ago and I am booked in for surgery on 25th, the thing is, I have over the last 2 or 3 days found another lump in the same underarm but further round and as I have a swelling near my nipple in the same breast, my nipple is really painful too, should I mention this to the hospital now or should I wait until I go in, I'm a little concerned.
